Dawson Bridge Closure

0 comments at 4:00 pm posted by Chris C

So, the Dawson Bridge closed to traffic, pedestrians and cyclists on Monday.

Your best alternatives are the Low Level Bridge and the Cloverdale Pedestrian Bridge (which connects to Riverdale). If you need to head towards Capilano, then you can take the multiuse trail from Cloverdale up to 100 Ave (or follow it all the way to Rowland Road/106 Ave).  We’ve had conflicting reports about whether or not this path is being cleared of snow: if you know its status this winter, please .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address), and we’ll post an update here for everyone.

I’m thinking of starting up a city-wide trail condition reporting service.  Would you use this/participate? .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).

Now, you’re always welcome to send us e-mails with your complaints, and we’ll pass them on to the City or whoever’s appropriate.  But if you’re in the mood for some musical complaints, then I’ve got a video for you!  This is from a few years ago. Where was I back then? I don’t know.  Out enjoying the warm summer, likely.

Enjoy! Or, don’t, and leave a comment with your complaint.

CBC’s As It Happens organized Canada’s own complaints choir, if you’d like to hear about numb fingers, cell phone fees, and expensive cars that have no signal lights.
